x86, ACPI: Search buffer above 4GB in a second try for acpi initrd table override

Now we only search buffer for new acpi tables in initrd under
4GB. In some case, like user use memmap to exclude all low ram,
we may not find range for it under 4GB. So do second try to
search for buffer above 4GB.

Since later accessing to the tables is using early_ioremap(),
using memory above 4GB is OK.
